I run 2.3 miles in 40 minutes on my treadmill and it says I burn about 240 calor!


Question: Do you think this is accurate 240 calories seems like very little to burn


Answers: Do you think this is accurate 240 calories seems like very little to burn

I know how you feel. The 240 is deceptive. Although the exercise may have burned 240, the hightened metabolism will continue to burn calories well after exercising. In addition, the muscles youve exercised will need calories every day in order to sustain themselves. Therefore, don't worry about the 240. Keep up the awesome running and you'll burn plenty of calories. Drink a lot of water too.
However, 2 miles in 40 minutes sounds more like a relaxed walk.Maybe the computer on your treadmill is messed up and you actually ran 4 miles and burned 1000 calories. Who knows?

See those Christmas cookies aren't really worth it!

Sounds similar to mine.

**** DUDE THATS FREAKIN SLOW
you should b able to run it in less than 20 minutes
around 17-19 minutes??

That is 3.45 miles an hour, I would not call that running.

Yes, unfortunately that IS accurate. It just ain't fair, is it!! lol
You can gain that by eating a Milky Way in 2 minutes!!

The exercise is good for your heart and your whole body, so keep it up...and no Milky Ways!! LOL
